On arrival, looked like an old 1960/70's motel, but had been completely refurbished inside. Great bathroom. Straight across from the lake and short walk to town center. Would stay again.

The stay was sufficient to our needs and was clean. Would recommend they take a look at the toliet, so loud and ran for along time to the point we had to turn off the water to make it stop. A little dated but good.

Dear Tash, Apologies for late response to your feedback. We at Edgewater Motel always value guest's feedback and use it as a tool of benchmarking ourselves. I am happy that our 2 bed room unit was sufficient to your needs but at the same time disappointed as found room a bit dated and bathroom bit noisy. We had planned our refurbishment last winter but due to covid we had to postpone our refurbishment to next winter. Hopefully when you visit Te Anau next time we will be able to serve you better. Regards Nakul Behal

Even though it is an older building, it has been refurbished to a very good standard. The staff are friendly, helpful and provide a very comfortable stay. Great location with an easy walk to cafes, restaurants and shops.
